linux-image-2.6.28-1-amd64 is _huuuuge_



Previous debian kernel packages were kind of big but the recent
packaging of 2.6.28 is _much_ bigger --

   $ apt-cache show linux-image-2.6.28-1-amd64 |grep Installed-Size
   Installed-Size: 220644
   $ apt-cache show linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 |grep Installed-Size
   Installed-Size: 80592

I guess the number of drivers is always growing, but is this almost 300%
increase in package size really ok...?

Thanks,

-Miles
